Excerpt from Floating Flies and How to Dress Them: A Treatise on the Most Modern Methods of Dressing Artificial Flies for Trout and Grayling A Few years ago I consulted a professional fly-dresser as to the best means of learning to make artificial flies, to enable me to produce imitations of the natural insects sufficiently good to serve as patterns, and was seriously, and, I believe, without "arrière pensée", assured by him that it was impossible for an Amateur to acquire the art otherwise than by taking a series of lessons at a considerable cost. Having always been an unbeliever in the word impossible I determined to try and teach myself. Accordingly, with a copy of Ronalds' "Fly Fisher's Entomology" opened before me, and a few indispensable materials, I commenced trying to puzzle out the mysteries of the craft. After many attempts, and almost as many failures, I succeeded in turning out something remotely akin in form and colour to the Red Spinner illustrated in that admirable treatise, and was further encouraged by finding a grayling sufficiently silly to take this bad imitation.
